This is the big news of the year. A BMW M1 was found in a barn. The German BMW dealer Mint Classic has discovered
the 1981 model. According to the Germans, the model was collecting dust for the last 34 years.
The BMW M1 was found in an Italian garage and it hasn’t been touched since 1982. The car also has the original engine and tires which were manufacutred in 1980. More than that, on the clock, the car has just 7,392 kilometers.
